Jennifer Lawrence stole the show in aDiordresses at the world premiere of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 in London last night.

The 24-year-old star turned up at the glitzy event in the capital's Leicester Square wearing a floor-length quilted dress which must have provided some welcome protection against the chilly November evening.

And the Oscar-winning beauty proved that fashion rules are made for breaking by staying classy as she showed both leg and cleavage in a sensational white dress at the after party.

Speaking to the crowd, J-Law said: "It's amazing to see so many fans here. Someone gave me a photo of a Shetland pony to sign. I don't know what it means but it's still making me laugh now."

And talking to Sky News, she added: "It's amazing to see the crowds. It's the most incredible feeling. That's why we make these movies - for these people."

She was joined by co-stars Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Julianne Moore, Donald Sutherland, Elizabeth Banks, Natalie Dormer, Jena Malone, Stanley Tucci and Sam Claflin on the red carpet - along with director Francis Lawrence (no relation).

And veteran actor Sutherland paid tribute to the star of the movie.

"You don’t get a chance to work with a genius all that often and that's what she is," he declared.

Celebs in attendance included a selection of X Factor contestants past and present, Lorde, Katie Price and Daisy Lowe.

The movie goes on general release in the UK onNovember 20.
